Vivek Sequeira is a perfect blend of talent, skill, and dedication, whose studio is a landmark in Mangalore. Among the few competitions Vivek participated in, he won the national-level competition in 1997 at the Pondicherry Photography Workshop. Catering to clients from all parts of India and abroad, Vivek has already obtained photography assignments for events. He got into photography by a mere accident from another profession. But once he was into it, he explored his hidden talents and potential. He did not possess any prior experience, but he had creativity and determination to excel and grit. He revolutionized the concept with innovative ideas, a sense of timing and angles, aesthetically tasteful backgrounds etc. When, nowadays, there has been no demand for black and white photographs, he has added a bit of spice into the aspect and now more and more clients are occasionally asking for his black and white shots and for the sepia effect.
